On the PP, his slow foot speed isn't as much of a problem since usually he is only playing in the offensive zone. If there is a steal that goes in the other direction, he'll be the guy that's behind the play. Among other things, his lack of speed is what makes using him at center, unless its as a fill in, a no go.Schenn is doing most of his damage on the PP, as he has done this whole season.
This been going on since he got here. It isn't going to magically disappear. He is heavy footed compared to other NHL players. He could get away with his slowness in Junior since there aren't that many quick players per team as there is in the NHL. It would be nice if the fans accepted him for what he is- a wing- and stop with this Schenn at center movement.
